Thomas Edison Quotes (source: Wikiquote)

"Many of life's failures are people who did not realize how close they were to success when they gave up."
"I speak without exaggeration when I say that I have constructed 3,000 different theories in connection with the electric light, each one of them reasonable and apparently likely to be true. Yet only in two cases did my experiments prove the truth of my theory. My chief difficulty was in constructing the carbon filament. . . . Every quarter of the globe was ransacked by my agents, and all sorts of the queerest materials used, until finally the shred of bamboo, now utilized by us, was settled upon."
"Opportunity is missed by most people because it is dressed in overalls and looks like work."
"I never did a day's work in my life, it was all fun."
